Join us as Francie Randolph discusses the work of Sustainable CAPE, a Truro-based nonprofit that celebrates local food while educating and empowering individuals to create a more delicious, healthy and sustainable world. From its beginnings in a volunteer-run agricultural fair to its present, Sustainable CAPE seeks to demonstrate the direct link between local food, sustainable health and wellness, and the importance of preserving the fragile land and water resources that directly enable our local harvest. Among its many programs and events are Children’s Gardens, Farmer’s Markets, Food Access and Food is Medicine.

Founding Director of Sustainable CAPE, Francie Randolph, Ed.M., is an award-winning visual artist whose nature-based work has been published & exhibited internationally. After living in Papua New Guinea and Australia, she taught in Harvard’s Visual and Environmental Studies Department for 7 years, winning numerous Teaching Awards. In 2009, she and two farming friends co-founded the Truro Agricultural Fair; shortly thereafter she founded the non-profit Sustainable CAPE. Randolph now works toward creating a Deeply Rooted Food System, combining her undergraduate and graduate degrees from Harvard with cross-disciplinary passions for art, food, health, the environment, education & food equity. She lives surrounded by gardens on an historic farm in Truro with her artist husband, 2 children, 1 cat, a dozen hens and countless honeybees.
